    • The largest piece of capital raised last week was 10-year subordinated convertible notes with 5.50% interest (which may be paid in kind), with a conversion price of $5.75 per share.
    • AT&T and Vodafone, two of our prospective top customers, are not only investing in AST SpaceMobile, but also making $45.0 million of non-dilutive commercial payments (subject to conditions) on non-dilutive commercial payments and purchasing network equipment, actions which actively shape our commercial and go-to-market strategy and provide a structure for us to bring other customers onto the SpaceMobile network.
    • Lastly, while these first commercial payments represent only a small portion of the revenue opportunity in front of us, we believe they are helpful tools for jump-starting the service and efficiently funding the company.

    The right amount of capital to support the commercial roll out

    • With our first five commercial satellites fully-funded, last year we turned our attention to building and launching the next-generation BlueBirds, which are designed for a 10x improvement in throughput.
    • The series of simultaneous deals announced last week reflected our decision that $300 million was the right amount of capital to bring all together at once.
    • Altogether, we announced up to $306.5 million in aggregate gross proceeds, including convertible notes, non-dilutive commercial payments, common equity and a planned future draw on the company’s existing credit facility.
    • With our new incremental cash, we continue to maintain momentum and we are also well positioned to finance AST SpaceMobile efficiently for shareholders.

    Let’s keep making history together

    • I am confident that, over the long term, the value of our technology, our strategy, and our partner ecosystem will be fully recognized and realized.
    • I, along with all of the members of the AST SpaceMobile board of directors and management team, could not be more excited for the future of space-based communications, and we are excited to be the team leading the first and only space-based cellular broadband network.
    • Let’s keep it up to achieve our mission of connecting the unconnected!

    Sincerely,

    Abel Avellan
    Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
    AST SpaceMobile
